Security officials at New York-area hospitals plan to train medical workers to deal with the inevitable threat of an “active shooter” following overseas terror attacks on health-care facilities, The Post has learned.

“It’s not a question of if anymore — it’s a question of when,” said retired NYPD commander Robert Casazza, president of the Metropolitan Healthcare Security Directors Association.

The MHSDA last week got copies of a two-part instructional video it commissioned for distribution to its members, who work at 35-plus hospitals in and around the Big Apple.

The videos show what to do in case of attack, and how to keep a hospital running once it’s over — when cops take over to investigate.

The videos include an interview with nurse Andy Hull, who was wounded when a demented, 85-year-old patient opened fire with a smuggled handgun inside Danbury (Connecticut) Hospital in 2010.
